I'd rather push acupuncture needles under my fingernails than go and see this goofy little twit do anything. She's simply riding on the coattails of past star's controversies. "I Kissed A Girl?" PLEASE!! It's been done before, by bigger and better stars. Does she really think she's breaking new ground? She's just another "me too" girl, who wants her time in the spotlight.

MTV - Please, please -reconsider your choice of host NOW. Do you really want to be associated with an airhead who is happy to be manipulated by her cynical & moronic PR and record companies to promote knives as a cool lifestyle choice?
